IntelliJ IDEA fully supports Android development and includes in its default delivery all the plugins developed by Google for Android Studio: Android Support and Gradle.

You go: File -> New -> Project ...

The following window appears:

screen

click next and then follow the wizard’s instructions.

If there are no items in the New Project window, as in the screenshot, then you need to connect the above-mentioned plugins from the IDEA repository: Android Support and Gradle.

PS: If you are only interested in android development, then the best solution would be to use Google fork IntelliJ IDEA - Android Studio . This is almost the same IDE, but by default it does not include a lot of plug-ins "big" IDEA, which are not needed for android-development.

IDEA is a universal development environment for many platforms, Android Studio is sharpened exclusively for android development. Otherwise, these are two comparable (even identical) products.
It is worth noting that by connecting or disconnecting plug-ins from IDEA, you can make Android Studio, and from Android Studio - IDEA Community
